Emma Watson private photos stolen in ‘hack’

Lawyers are working on the case and we will not comment more on this case, “he said”.

As far as Amanda Seyfried is concerned, around 22 images have been leaked, far fewer than her friend Emma’s.

Reports are spreading online that hackers got hold of nude photos of both actresses, each seeking to take legal action.

Ms Watson, who stars in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, due to hit United States theatres on Friday, was threatened on the controversial 4Chan message board in 2014 with a leak of nude images after she had delivered a speech about gender equality. One of the men responsible for the 2014 Fappening, Ryan Collins, received 18 months in prison after pleading guilty to hacking about 100 women.

She became engaged to fiance Thomas Sadoski in September (16), and the couple announced the baby news in November (16) when Amanda debuted her bump at a Givenchy red carpet event. It was not clear what action her lawyers are planning, or against whom.

Emma Watson star of Beauty and the Beast on the red carpet. If someone takes a photograph of me and posts it, within two seconds they’ve created a marker of exactly where I am within 10 meters. “No woman should have to go through this”.

Lawrence, whose accounts were hacked from where her photos were stolen, was pretty shaken-up about the incident and called it a “sex crime”.

In response, Watson said she did not understand what her “tits had to do with feminism”.

She was forced to release a statement after online posts claimed naked images of her had been put up on an anonymous message board as well as encrypted parts of the internet.

Although Watson does not appear to be the only individual targeted this week, the leaks follow a public “controversy” around the fact the actress posed in a revealing outfit on the cover of Vanity Fair.
